I would like to activate both the RF input for a basic cable feed and Line 2 as my cable box input. However, as soon as I activate Line 2 and define it as a cable box, it becomes the primary input source, and the unit seems to always use it for regular viewing and recording when asking to record from the guide. This is true even if the channel exists on the RF input, and other than setting up a manual record on that input, I cannot get it to record from that source.
I would like to have the unit default to record/view from the RF input unless I specifically ask it to record from a particular channel on Line 2. Is this possible? I want to be recording on one of the analog channels and still have control of the cable box to watch HD or OnDemand at the same time. However, I am still looking to be able to set up automatic recordings from the cable box, if I want.
I can almost do it by setting Line 2 as "Other" device (the RF connector reverts to being primary when Line 2 is not a cable box), however I lose the ability of having the unit use the IR blaster to change the cable box to the right station - I have to set it up manually ahead of time, and can only do one channel.
Either way I am manually recording one or the other.
